The next morning, Ye Fan deliberately slept in.
This was the only way that others would believe that he had spent the night with the dancer.
For the sake of realism, he prepared two pillows on the bed and asked for a few strands of hair from the dancer to be placed on the bedding.
Looking at the wrinkled bedding and the strands of hair on the soft pillow, Ye Fan nodded.
Everything seemed to be the case.
Baihu, who was sleeping on the futon, tilted its head and looked at Ye Fan. It didn't know what Ye Fan was up to.
It didn't go to the banquet with Ye Fan last night. Instead, it chose to sleep on the second floor of the cabin.
After all, the East Sea was calm last night. It was the best place for it to sleep. Besides, it didn't like to see strangers, so it didn't know what happened at the banquet last night.
As for Ye Fan and the dancer hugging and pretending to be intimate downstairs, it didn't know either.
The reason was very simple. When Ye Fan deliberately made Akatsuki look at him, he had already set up a spirit energy barrier between the first and second floor.
This way, even if there was thunder and lightning on the first floor of the cabin, Baihu wouldn't be able to hear anything from the second floor.
After washing up, Ye Fan went downstairs. Baihu followed closely behind.
What surprised him was that the dancer had already prepared a sumptuous breakfast. She was kneeling quietly at the table, waiting for Ye Fan.
The dancer was no longer wearing the revealing outfit from last night. Instead, she had changed into an elegant white dress. She looked slender and beautiful.
"Good morning, Mr. Ye." When the dancer who was kneeling on the floor saw Ye Fan coming downstairs, she immediately bowed towards Ye Fan and said.
"You don't have to be so polite to me in the future, understand?" Ye Fan said to the dancer as he went downstairs.
From an outsider's point of view, he and the dancer were already intimate. A man and a woman who had an intimate relationship would definitely not be so polite.
The reason why Ye Fan said this to her was to make his act more convincing.
"Yes," the dancer replied.
Baihu, who was following behind Ye Fan, was dumbfounded when she saw the white-clothed dancer and the sumptuous breakfast on the table.
Who was this woman? Why was she here? What was the relationship between Ye Fan and her? What happened last night? What about Akatsuki? Wasn't she the one who delivered the food every day? Why didn't he come today?
Countless questions appeared in Baihu's mind.
"Xiao Zhao, come and eat." Ye Fan said as he sat down. He took a plate of pastries and a plate of fruits and pushed it in front of Baihu.
"Woo …" Baihu looked at Ye Fan in confusion and let out a fox cry.
"Hong Ji won't cook for us in the future." Ye Fan reached out and picked up a piece of exquisite sushi from the plate and threw it into his mouth. He said to Baihu, "You saw it too. Her husband has already rushed over from Dongying to see her. We can't trouble her anymore. In the future, our meals will be taken care of by Ishii and this … this …"
He forgot the dancer's name and couldn't remember it at the moment.
"My name is Oda Ono. Please take care of me in the future, Sister Xiao Zhao," the dancer said in choppy Chinese and bowed deeply to Baihu.
The dancer had heard about the Baihu by Ye Fan's side.
It was said that Baihu had already cultivated into a human form. In order to save Ye Fan, she fell into a fox's body. Ye Fan's care and concern for her was not inferior to his wife, Fujiwara No Chiko.
"Yes, Oda Ono," Ye Fan said to Baihu. "In the future, she will live on our ship and take care of our meals."
What?
Live on our ship?
Baihu's eyes widened when she heard that. She turned her head to look at Ye Fan.
"Alright, don't think so much. Eat." Ye Fan picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into Baihu's mouth.
He understood Baihu's thoughts.
Oda Ono grinned.
"In the future, learn to make some fancy pastries and Chinese food. I'm not used to Dongying food," Ye Fan said to Oda Ono as he drank tea.
"Yes, I will learn seriously," Oda Ono nodded and said.
"Have you eaten yet?" Ye Fan asked.
"Not yet," Oda Ono replied.
"Then let's eat together," Ye Fan said as he pushed a plate of sushi in front of Oda Ono.
"No, no, no, Oda's status is lowly. How would I dare to eat with Mr. Ye?" Oda Ono waved her hand and said.
"There is no difference in status with me. Eat." Ye Fan said calmly.
Oda Ono pursed her lips and nodded.
She carefully picked up a piece of sushi and took a small bite.
Although she was a Jounin, she was at most a high-ranking servant in Matsumoto Takeyoshi's place.
Eating at the same table as her master was something she had never experienced before.
"Did you tell Matsumoto Takeyoshi what I told you last night?" Ye Fan asked.
"I've already told the master what you've instructed me to do," Oda Ono replied.
"What did Matsumoto Takeyoshi say?" Ye Fan asked again.
"My master asked me to serve you well," Oda Ono replied.
"Did he ask you to monitor me and report to him regularly?" Ye Fan asked.
"No." Oda Ono replied.
"Well, you eat. I'll go to the deck." Ye Fan put down the teacup and stood up. He took Baihu out of the cabin and to the deck.
Ye Fan believed Oda Ono's words.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi wasn't stupid. He knew that this woman had no way to monitor him, or rather, she didn't have the ability to monitor him.
As long as he wanted to, he could make this woman turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear.
At this time, the East Sea's sea wind whistled, and huge waves surged. It was magnificent and beautiful.
Ye Fan breathed in the fresh air and stretched his arms and legs.
At this time, Akatsuki, dressed in red, slid open the cabin door and walked out.
In an instant, the two of them looked at each other.
Akatsuki's eyes were red and swollen.
Ye Fan felt a stab of pain in his heart.
Obviously, Akatsuki had cried the whole night.
When she flew towards Ye Fan's boat, Ye Fan had already noticed her arrival.
With his current cultivation, even if Akatsuki hid her aura, he could still sense it clearly.
In order to make Akatsuki give up on him, Ye Fan deliberately let her see the scene of him hugging the dancer intimately.
The moment Akatsuki left the boat, Ye Fan felt Akatsuki's heartbreak and also heard the sound of Akatsuki's heart being torn apart.
Seeing Ye Fan looking at her, Akatsuki lowered her head, avoiding Ye Fan's gaze, and hurriedly walked towards Matsumoto Takeyoshi's cabin.
Shua!
Just as Ye Fan looked at Akatsuki, the black-robed Chi Yao suddenly appeared beside Ye Fan and stood shoulder to shoulder with Ye Fan.
"Brother Ye, last night was a romantic night. I think it must have been endless fun, right?"
Chi Yao turned her head to look at Ye Fan and said with a naughty smile.
"Brother Yao, you should be practicing in a gentle village. What are you doing here?" Ye Fan looked at the wide sea with a smile and asked Chi Yao.
"That beauty of mine practiced with me all night. She just fell asleep," Chi Yao turned her head and said, "I heard that Brother Ye also got a beauty. Is this true?"
"Whether it's true or not, can't you see for yourself?" Ye Fan replied.
After hearing this, Chi Yao turned her body and looked at the cabin behind her. Her eyes narrowed.
After a moment, Chi Yao smiled.
She had already sensed the dancer in Ye Fan's cabin.
"I didn't expect Brother Ye to be such a sentimental person." Chi Yao turned around and said with a smile.
"I'll have to learn more from Brother Yao in the future." Ye Fan looked at Chi Yao and replied with a smile.
"Hahaha …" Chi Yao was stunned at first, then she looked up and laughed.
Whoosh …
While the two were talking and laughing, Ishii, who was dressed in white, flew up from the opposite warship!
He had a battle sword on his back and a white mask on his face. His feet stepped on the thick iron chain between the two warships as he quickly headed in their direction!
"It seems that something has happened," Chi Yao said to Ye Fan when she saw Ishii's rapid movement technique and the battle sword on his back.
Usually, these ninjas would not use their movement technique so quickly, much less carry battle swords on their backs.
Ye Fan narrowed his eyes and did not say anything.
Chi Yao was right. Something had indeed happened.
"Mr Ye, Mr Chi Yao!" Ishii, who had a battle sword on his back, landed in front of the two of them and knelt on one knee.
"Why are you dressed like this? What happened?"
Ye Fan asked Ishii.
"Mr Ye, we just received a secret report from the frontline. Seven unknown warships have appeared in the sea fifty kilometers away from here. They are currently heading in this direction!" Ishii said to Ye Fan with a serious expression.
"Seven warships?" Ye Fan asked with a frown.
"Yes," Ishii replied. "These seven warships have strong ships and powerful cannons. Their combat strength is in no way inferior to Wuji. Mr Matsumoto has already ordered everyone to be on alert. He also sent a subordinate to inform the two of you to quickly head to the meeting room for a discussion."
"We got it. You can go first," Chi Yao said to Ishii.
Ishii nodded, turned around, and used his movement technique to fly away.
"What do you think of this matter?" Chi Yao turned to ask Ye Fan.
"What else can I think of? They're definitely here for Matsumoto Takeyoshi," Ye Fan said to Chi Yao. "Cut the crap. Let's go and take a look."
Swoosh!
As Ye Fan spoke, he picked up Baihu and disappeared into thin air.
"Hehe, this is going to be interesting."
Whoosh …
As Chi Yao spoke, her figure turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared into thin air!
Swoosh …
Ye Fan and Chi Yao appeared on the deck of the warship almost at the same time.
At that moment, the sails of the warship were raised high. Rows of cannons extended from both sides of the warship. The black muzzles of the cannons were cold and merciless.
On the deck of the ship, hundreds of ninjas all gathered together.
They carried battle swords on their backs and had bandages wrapped around their heads. Hidden arrows were tied to their arms, and bulging bags of hidden weapons hung from their waists. It could be said that they were covered in thorns from head to toe!
All the ninjas had resolute gazes as they remained silent.
At that moment, other than the sound of the sails and the roar of the waves crashing against the warship, there was no other sound!
The warship broke through the wind and waves, stirring up a thousand piles of snow!
The ninjas were filled with fighting spirit as they prepared to attack!
A murderous aura filled the entire warship!
Ye Fan and Chi Yao looked at each other, then quickly walked into the warship's meeting room.
